GREAT LINES FROM FILMS

Captain Jack Aubrey's toast from Master and Commander:  The Far Side of the World.
When Captain Aubrey makes the toast 'To wives and sweethearts - may they never meet' he is following a custom in the Royal Navy called the toast of the day. There was a special toast for every day of the week. This one in particular was usually for Saturdays.
